Grandpas Grin
My grandpa shocked a copper
Flashed him with a toothless smile
Dropped his trousers, bared his bottom
Like he’d planned it all the while
Nicked him good and proper
You'll be locked up for the night
You can't go baring all your bits
And giving folk a fright
Questioned later in a cell
Tell me why you flashed your butt
And why on earth you did it
Smirking like a mangy mutt
He blamed it all on grannie
Said that it was her idea
She had a strange solution
To the problem on his rear
The copper asked what she had said
To make make his manic dash
Grinning like a Cheshire cat
And giving folk a flash
Well he'd told her of the boil
That was hurting on his bum
He couldn't even take a seat
Which made him feel so glum
So how is she the reason
The duty copper said
You were smiling, you were flashing
And not at home in bed
She's always said a problem halves
If you will only share it
But this time all she said was that...
I’d have to grin and bare it
